Journal ArticleDOI
Unstable expansion of CAG repeat in hereditary dentatorubral–pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA)
Reiji Koide,Takeshi Ikeuchi,Osamu Onodera,H. Tanaka,Shuichi Igarashi,Kotaro Endo,Hitoshi Takahashi,R. Kondo,A. Ishikawa,T. Hayashi,Masaaki Saito,Akemi Tomoda,Teruhisa Miike,Haruhiko Naito,Fusahiro Ikuta,Shoji Tsuji +15 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the wide variety of clinical manifestations of DRPLA can now be explained by the variable unstable expansion of the CAG repeat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurobiological consequences of early stress and childhood maltreatment: are results from human and animal studies comparable?
TL;DR: Preclinical studies on the effects of exposure to early life stress can demonstrate causality, and can enrich the understanding of the clinical research if they hypothesize that the consequences of early abuse are predominantly mediated through the induction of stress responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced prefrontal cortical gray matter volume in young adults exposed to harsh corporal punishment
Akemi Tomoda,Hanako Suzuki,Hanako Suzuki,Keren Rabi,Yi-Shin Sheu,Ann Polcari,Ann Polcari,Martin H. Teicher,Martin H. Teicher +8 more
TL;DR: Exposing children to harsh HCP may have detrimental effects on trajectories of brain development, and it is also conceivable that differences in prefrontal cortical development may increase risk of exposure to HCP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to parental verbal abuse is associated with increased gray matter volume in superior temporal gyrus
Akemi Tomoda,Yi-Shin Sheu,Keren Rabi,Hanako Suzuki,Hanako Suzuki,Carryl P. Navalta,Carryl P. Navalta,Ann Polcari,Ann Polcari,Martin H. Teicher,Martin H. Teicher +10 more
TL;DR: The present results suggest that the development of auditory association cortex involved in language processing may be affected by exposure to early stress and/or emotionally abusive language.
Journal ArticleDOI
Childhood sexual abuse is associated with reduced gray matter volume in visual cortex of young women.
Akemi Tomoda,Akemi Tomoda,Akemi Tomoda,Carryl P. Navalta,Carryl P. Navalta,Ann Polcari,Norihiro Sadato,Martin H. Teicher,Martin H. Teicher +8 more
TL;DR: Findings indicate that exposure to CSA may also affect the development of this region and are apparent even in a population of subjects who are sufficiently healthy to matriculate.
